The United States has promised a reward of up to $ 10 million for information about hackers

The United States has promised a reward of up to $ 10 million for information leading to hackers’ attacks on sensitive U.S. infrastructure on behalf of a foreign government. The State Department, which oversees the project, said in a statement that it had created a special place in the “dark web” for the secret version of the Internet, “to protect the security of cryptocurrencies”.

The Ministry writes, “We promote information about malicious cyber activity on critical US infrastructure (…) under the direction or control of the foreign government to use this site.” States include government or financial institutions that are “for the purpose of obtaining information” and “causing harm.”

After a series of “ransomware” attacks, cyber attacks have become a major concern in the United States, with malicious programs encrypting their target data and often demanding millions of dollars in exchange for encryption. Their shutdown of several companies, including hospitals, town halls and the operator of a large oil pipeline system, shows the weakness of American infrastructure in the face of these attacks, often said to be operated by Russian-speaking hackers or from Russia.
